Instructions
Heat grapeseed oil over medium heat in a saucepot.
Saute the shallot and garlic until the shallots turn translucent, being careful not to burn the garlic. Stir in rosemary and thyme, add crushed tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, cover and let simmer for 15 minutes, then partially remove lid (leave it covered just enough to keep the spattering down) and reduce heat to medium-low, let thicken and reduce for another 15 minutes.
While the sauce is thickening, season the fish with salt and pepper. Arrange fish on a steaming rack and steam over a pan of boiling water until it flakes easily, about 6 to 7 minutes.
While the fish is steaming, remove the sauce from the heat and whisk in the cream. Strain the sauce into a bowl.
Spoon sauce into the center of serving plate, top with a fish fillet and fresh grape tomatoes.
Sprinkle with parsley leaves.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Halibut works really well with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. You could try Thrive Pinot Grigio. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 15 dollars per bottle.
